V & F Sheet
Metal have now grown to a size where they can offer a complete sheet metal
fabrication service to their customers in the UK from their 13,000 Sq. Ft.
factory based in Fareham, Hampshire. This may include advice on the suitability
of sheet metal fabrication designs for manufacturing, sub-assembly work or
treatments and finishing to your sheet metal design specification. They are
continually investing in the latest CNC equipment (Trumpf manufacturing
equipment featuring heavily recently) and CAD/CAM software enabling them to
offer the best combination of quality and price to suit your purchasing
requirements. They have a company blog on their website where you can view many
sheet metal design case studies illustrating some of the modern CNC techniques
that can be employed to help reduce your costs.
They have a long history of working with UK based lighting companies to help
reduce their sheet metal component costs & improve the quality of their
subcontract engineering projects. With many standard CNC punching and CNC
bending tools & materials such as reflector aluminium, set-up costs can be kept
to a minimum when considering new fabrication projects.
| Continually Investing |
V & F Sheet Metal are really pleased to announce that they have invested in a
brand new Trumpf 3030 3KW fibre laser cutting machine. This laser cutter was
installed during October 2013 and is now working alongside their Trumpf 200 and
Trumpf 3000 CNC punch presses enabling them to react even quicker to urgent
manufacturing requirements.
For many years they have specialised in CNC punching thin sheet metal work and
this new investment in laser cutting will enable them in time to provide a wider
cutting service to their existing and new customers with the ability to cut up
to 20mm thick mild steel, 15mm thick stainless steel, 15mm thick aluminium, 6mm
thick copper and 6mm thick brass sheet and plate.
| Bespoke Sheet Metal |
Lighting Reflectors, sheet metal modular housings, chassis, gear trays, fibre
optics enclosures, LED plates etc for the Lighting Industry in the UK.
- Perforated ventilation grilles for the Heating Industry.
- Perforated speaker grilles for the Audio Industry.
- Front panels, enclosures and housings for the Electronics
Industry.
- Many welded sheet metal fabrication assemblies utilising Tig, Mig, Gas, Spot and Stud welding.
3D software models of complex sheet metal fabrications and full assemblies can
be generated to help eliminate design errors before any sheet metal work is
undertaken. 3D and 2D images can then be used to help you visualise your own
designs for manufacturing suitability. Where you only have a sample V and F
Sheet Metal can take this and produce 2D drawings to work to in their
manufacturing plant and for your future reference when placing new orders. These
drawings can be output in AutoCAD compatible file formats DWG and DXF. They can
also import your 3D data from Autodesk Inventor and Solidworks software to speed
up CNC laser cutting, CNC punch press and CNC press brake program generation. 2D
developments can be automatically and accurately produced ready for CNC tooling
and nesting of our Trumpf CNC punch presses and efficient laser cutting nests.
They believe that Trumpf produce the best CNC punching machine that money can
buy for manufacturing CNC punched sheet metal blanks. When this is combined with
their Radan CAD/CAM software you have a truly unbeatable combination for
manufacturing the best quality sheet metal work at a very competitive UK price.
There's only one way to see how effective this combination can be, ask for a
quote and see the benefits you can enjoy for yourself.
V and F Sheet Metal's Trumpf 7036 CNC press brakes are one of the fastest CNC
machines in the world for bending sheet metal components. These brand new CNC
bending machines were installed in the summer of 2010 and in the spring of 2011.
Both machines benefit from off line CNC programming Trumpf Tru-bend software.
The Tru-bend software has the ability to take data both in 3D and 2D formats
directly from their customers or from their own Radan 3D modelling system, thus
enabling them to check out jobs for bending problems before starting sheet metal
production in their factory. Selecting the correct CNC bending tooling and the
most efficient bend sequence enables them to reduce manufacturing cycle times
and keep your costs down when quoting you for your new sheet metal parts.
V and F Sheet Metal have various sheet metal case study gallery pages on their
website where you can view many past projects and a blog with case studies and
sheet metal manufacturing ideas. They have several design data pages to help you
with your new designs as well as CNC punching tooling which you can use to
create a new sheet metal work design knowing that all the features you dimension
can be CNC punched without any new tooling costs or drawing updates.
In conclusion, this data page can only be a starting point in showing you all
the services they can offer you. Please contact V and F Sheet Metal by phone or
visit their website and their engineering team will be pleased to talk through
your requirements and start to help you today.
